Didn't the mid-1930 teach people about how awful people can be to each other...? At least we don't have a 'solution' like in the mid-30's happening. For some reason I think that is many times worse than this - as bad as this is.

You would even see the network tab of task manager show excessively high usage.

Tools like TcpView can be run in real time to avoid logging into your router.Remember, if you log into your router while being controlled by something of this nature, then he/she can be playing with the same settings.

Use a desktop utility rather than risk accessing your router.Most (97%) of my modem/router work is done without an internet connection or phone line in the modem.Although sometimes I'm just slack.Then clean the browser history before connecting out again, I always have.

Human nature eh, it's a funny thing, a serious thing, a good thing and a bad thing all rolled into one.

This is the same thing that was going on in the 90's, the difference now is webcams are on everything, girls take 1000's of pics of themselves and kids are just not getting that they are doing illegal stuff.

I just spent 2 hours on the website this article linked to. It really is horrifying to read what they do to their "slaves"

I read threads and threads about how to make money off your slave. Basically getting their naked pics and then blackmailing them. There's even a thread called "What do you do when your slave doesn't have paypal" and then there's discussion about how only kids don't have paypal, etc etc.

Lets be real here, they are blackmailing kids. What would be really nice is if the fbi got involved and nailed each one of those fuckers to the wall.

What I don't get, is the fact that are so many free web cam sites out there. People that are willing to allow you to watch them as they go about their daily lives.Why hack someone's computer and risk getting caught?N/M, I can answer a part of that, for the thrill, sense of power over the victim. The risk of getting arrested.

As for the slave part, I'm sure there are some submissive women that would willingly do this. Granted she may want payment, but at least it's legal.--Is a person a failure for doing nothing? Or is he a failure for trying, and not succeeding at what he is attempting to do? What did you fail at today?.

They are also targeting people on purpose. I also took a look over there and I saw looked like mostly teenage boys, say 13-17 ish doing this stuff. Here's one topic

"My first slave, she's a friend and a hottie too "

He links up her picture in his RAT program. Then talks about he can't wait for her to change and make videos of it. Later on in the thread he says he got it but wont upload the video because it's his friend. (hah, friend!)

Another one targeted a girl who wouldnt go out with him. He got her naked on camera and then decided to blackmail her with the pictures. He never came back after he posted something about it with screen shots on her facebook wall. Hopefully he's in a jailcell somewhere.

It gets much darker from there I'm sure, but people wouldn't post that stuff.

If you want to see it yourself, sign up on the site and then click here, search for the word "slave"

Those have always been profound words to live by. Unfortunately, for some folks (especially teen-age boys), the words they too often live by are: Do unto others anything you want without getting caught. Eventually, the hormones balance out and these folks settle down - but sadly, not always.--The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. A. de Tocqueville
